I am attempting to predict the spatial fishing patterns in coastal waters. I have managed to supply dataframes to my MaxEnt function producing a MaxEnt object which holds the presences and absences.
I now want to supply to predict() function with a new dataframe to predict how presences/absences may change.

foo <- predict(object = habitat_model,x = NM_new)

The above line returns a numeric of values between 0 and 1.

What I expected to see here was a binary numeric indicating presences and absences. I am a little confused as to what these values between 0 and 1 actually represent. My goal here is to create a map which indicates positions which fishing takes place (ie 1 for fishing, 0 for no fishing).

I notice a similar question was asked here but the solution never really presented itself.

Thank you.
